Being Oneself with Others – Thursdays 1:00-2:30

Sometimes it seems like we cannot truly be ourselves while also being with others. But to be successful and happy, it is necessary to do both: to be oneself and at the same time be with others. This difficult skill can be learned, and this group is designed to teach it. You can learn to reduce obstacles to social interaction, such as anxiety and tension. By exploring your feelings, you will learn that they often provide valuable information. You might also be surprised to find that many people have similar feelings as yours.

Contact Juan Pablo Kalawski at jpkala01@louisville.edu to set up a 30-minute consultation meeting prior to attending the first group session.
